Tencent Music Entertainment Group (TME) saw its stock soar 5.04% in Wednesday's trading session, riding the wave of a broader rally in Chinese stocks and ADRs. The uptick comes as investors react positively to signs of potential de-escalation in US-China trade tensions, following hints from US President Donald Trump about lower tariffs on Chinese goods.

While Tencent Music's stock movement aligns with the general trend seen in other Chinese companies, the company also made two significant announcements. TME released its 2024 Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) report, highlighting its achievements in sustainability. Additionally, the company filed its annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The positive sentiment in Chinese stocks was further bolstered by comments from US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who suggested that the current tariff stand-off between the US and China was unsustainable. This has led to increased optimism among investors about the potential for improved trade relations between the world's two largest economies, benefiting companies like Tencent Music that are exposed to both markets.
